* V. I. Lenin's telegram to the Soviet military command in Eisk was a warning against the provocative policy of German interventionists, who seized every pretext for further occupation.

** The postscript was made by V. I. Lenin on a telegram from A. D. Tsyurupa, in which he recommended specialists in grain procurement and transport being sent to Tsaritsyn, to the disposal of Chokprod (Extraordinary Regional Food Committee for Southern Russia).
